TILLMAN ON THE TREATY.
Thinks That Democrats Will Not Be Able
To Have It Fall of Confirmation.
Senator Tillman while in Spar
tanburg recently, speaking of af
fairs at Washington, says the Spar
tanburg Journal, said that the 1
greater part of the discussion in the
senate and everywhere in political
circles is on the Colombian affair
and the Panama canal. Asked
concerning the position of the dem
ocratic and southern senators in re
lation to the canal, the senator
said:
"Well, there are only thirty
three democratic senators, and to
prevent the ratification of the treaty I
the minority will have to control I
thirty-one votes, and I am afraid i
that the Mississippi, Louisiana and I
Texas influence fzr the canal, with
that from other places also, will de
moralize our forces and let the
trity pass. We all want the canal,
but give it to us honestly, decently.
"The difficulty is that people for
get that the Panama route is not
the only one, but the republican
party has no morals nor respect for
a weaker country They want the
Panama canal, whether they get it 1
by fair means or foul."
The reporter asked if there were
much discussion concerning affairs
in the Orient. Senator Tillman
said that little or nothing was said I
of it in the senate but that there is
a great deal of quiet, earnest dis
cussion over conditions in China.
"Sympathy is all with Japan in
the Japan-Russian trouble," re
marked the senator. "Roosevelt
would be delighted to get some ex
cuses to embroil this country in the
'mess in China.' It is too early
to say what the outcome will be as
to our country."
SAYS rr BEATS WHISKEY.
South Carolina 'Man Invents Process to
Make Drink From Watermelons.
Topeka Capital.
J. H. Nicholes, of Wedgefield,
S. C., believes that he has discov- I
ered a process to make a drink out
of watermelon juice which will
Rupersede whiskey, and he wants
the Kansas State board of agricul
ture to assist him in securing capital
to exploit the discovery.
Mr Nicholes says that he under
stands that some of the farmers of
Kansas are raising watermelons
simply for the seed and are throw
ing away the melons after the seeds
are extracted. He asserts that this
is simply throwing away millions
of dollars yearly:
In his letter he says :
"I have the necessary machinery
planned for separating and preserv
ing watermelon juice, and I have a
process for clearing the juice so that
in a few days it will look like pure
corn whiskey, and in fifty or sixty
days can give you a nice drink1
with alcohol enough in it to make
you feel it if you drink a tumbler
full.
"I believe in temperance accord
ing to the Apostle Paul, and I have
come to the conclusion that whis- 1
key, as made these days, in an un
natural drink-too concentrated
and as long as I can get watermelon
juice, as I make it, I never will
drink any more whiskey.
"I have sold the watermelon juice
for $2 per gallon, and there are
millions in it at 50 cents per gal
lon."

MILK IN BRICKS.
oldified Cream is Now Sold in Chunks
Through New Process.
The inventors of a method by
which milk is now being solidified oo
considerable scale confidently be
ieve that their discovery will not on
y abolish the many dangers of the:
lairy, but will eventually do away
with the dairy itself. They are
:onfident, that is, that the day of
iquid milk is over.
People who have tried to solidify
nilk before have employed too low
i temperature in their fear of de
:omposing its fats and sugars, and
n consequence have failed. But
)y the Just-Hatmaker process the
iquid milk is whisked round pol
shed cylinders kept at q fierce heat
>y steam, and comes off in a few
seconds in the form of a continuous
:reamy-white sheet five feet in:
vidth. This is reduced to powder,
mnd may be compressed into cakes.
The feature of the product is that
t is still potentially -ilk-the
rhole milk and nothing but the
nilk. and to make new milk at any
:ime it is only necessary to add the
seven parts of water which have
een evaporated.
The result is said to be difficult to
listinguish from fresh milk. Its
:ream rises naturally, and it may
e made into butter or cheese. The
owder cakes keep indefinitely, and
;amples have been sent round the
veld and kept for three weeks in
ta;. returning quite fresh.
Do.usly it is impossible to water,
kim or adulterate solid milk. and
fact to which the inventors attach;
mxtreme importance is that all at
:empts to cultivate microbes on it
iave failed.-San Francisco Call.
PROTECT THE FISHES.
troug Extraet from a Sensible Editorial
on an important Platter.
ews and Courier.
It goes without saying that no
>ll that discriminates imperiously
igainst any county should be
)assed, and that whatever bill shall
)e passed shall be "fair" to the;
:oast counties-and to all the;:
)thers. What is "fair" to all of
:hem, however is a nice question,
d one that should receive the:
nost thoughtful consideration of
:he Legislature. It might not be
air to all of them, for example, to.
llow three or four of their niim
>er practically to destroy all the
shell fish, or the migratory fish, by
wasteful or improper methods of
aking them, inspired by greed of~
emporary gain, and having no re
ard to consequences. Terrapin,
mud sturgeon have been nearly ex-:
:erminated from the State in a few
years by such methods, and oys
ers, clams and shad are now se-:
iously tbreatened with the same
sate. It is a pertinent and "fair"''
uestion, .,. .ther the representa
:ives in the Legislature of the ma
erial interests of all the counties,
'he State, should permit a few fish
~rmen in the coast counties to de
~troy public resources of food and
rofit which are among the most
aluable in the State, and in which
Il the people of the State have
-ights and interests, without mak
g an effort to stop the reckless
work.
Just Get Out Doors.
~tlanta Journal.
A current magazine tells of a New
?ork gentleman who said to his
amily physician, "Doctor, I find I
m using too much coffee, and may.
>e just a little too much tobacco.
hat do you advise me to do? I
vant to stop these habits, but don't
;eem to be able to. If I stop coffee,
can't work."
'My friend,'' said the physician,'
'a great many people ask me that~
meston in the course ot a year. I
tell them all just what I tell you
don't try to quit your tobacco, if
that would inconvenience you in
your work. Just get out of doors
often enough so that you can stand
your coffee and your tobacco. And
then you'll be all right."
The anecdote is timely at this sea
son of the year. A great many peo
ple feel badly towards the winter's
end, and fancy that it is because
they are drinking too much tea or
coffee, or eating too much, when
what they really need is more ox
ygen and ozone. Temperance is
an essential thing, of course; but
the most rigid temperance in all
matters cannot make a man feel as
be should unless the lungs are sup
plied with plenty of fresh air and
the body invigorated with sunlight.
Just get out of doors. There are
only a certain number of sunny
days in a person's life. Why not
make'the most of them?
THE LADIES favor painting their
churches, and therefore we urge evL,ry
Minister to remember we give a liberal
quantity of the Longman & Martinez
Paint toward the painting.

Don't pay $1.50 a gallon for Linseed
Oil (worth 60 cents) which you do when
you buy other paints in a can with a
paint label on it.
8 & 6 make 14, therefore when you
want fourteen gallons of paint. buy only
eight of L. & M., and mix six gallons
pure Linseed Oit with it, and thus get
paint at less than $1.20 per gallon.
Many houses are well painted with
four gallons of L. &. M. and three gal
lons of Linseed Oil mixed therewith.

Any woman can cure her husband,
son or brother, or any one of liquor
drinking, by secretly placing ite
Ribbon remedy in his coffee, tea or food

odorless or tasteless. Any good and
faithful woman can wipe out this fear

the craving for liquor. By degrees the
patient gets a distaste for intoxicants,
and finally leaves off altogether. It is
wonderful. Many a hard drinker has
thus been reclaimed and restored to his
family and friends. White Ribbon
